Good luck to him .

Ok ... if it's public knowledge ... press release Thursday ....

Sorry I made that up.

rlKyle Briggs Bradford move confirmedrl

Rikki Sheriffe signs for Newcastle Falcons RU for 2011-1012.

watched Craig Cook play his first game at TO yesterday v Catalans - he did ok tho' looked a little heavy to me,maybe 'chunky' is the correct word - I spoke to him afterwards and he said he was enjoying himself in france (living with Ged Corcoran - God forbid !) asking him if he was getting the hang of the local lingo he replied ' si senor,deux bieres por favor monsieur,danker schoen'

tbh Mr. Cook has never had the build of a racing snake.

true enough and he did ok against the big Catalans forwards - looks a good bet for TO this season - I believe he's done quite a bit of coaching in your area ?

Wonder if he's taught them his stop start dummy move.

heard about that and watched out for it yesterday tho' I think the Catalans were on to him too quicky before being able to perform the trick - i'll look out for it against the Rams next week

He's a stone too heavy.

yeh,he looked it - fortunately the coach is really tough on physical training so our Craig will look like a butchers dog in a couple of months hopefully

I wonder if he's appalling at Rugby Union as well
